Custom 12g ULSH ready to hunt
« on: November 11, 2010, 12:45:55 AM »
Well I ordered a XP hammer spring but it has not come in yet. So I unwound the stock spring a full inch just to prove out accuracy.
I am pleased with the accuarcy from the 12 but my daughters 20 USH will shoot tighter groups.
This thing still packs a kick but it is manageable. I use the Rem Core Lokt Ultra Sabots 2 3/4 385gr 1900fps. The gun shoots pretty close as stated on the shell box except the 50 yd did not drop as much as expected. I used the same target for all ranges but it gets a little cluttered.

Good to hear, glad your happy with your USH's!!

I also have a couple and they are real tack drivers!!!

I also like the ultra slugs, but don't use them unless longer range shots are in order. I have been using Buck hammers. they shoot almost as well and REALLY HAMMER deer!!!!

Here is a group I shot with Buck Hammers.

It's not an ultra slug hunter, but here is a 3 shot group out of my Tracker II 20ga at 75 yards.  By the way I really like the stock where did you get it?

I carved the stock and forearm from scratch. A friend of mine owns a bunch of lumber mills here in MI. I took it from a slab of black walnut.
